1 | Temple and No Temple? | Rev 21:22 | Mommapbs | 62211 | ||
Throughout the Revelation of Jesus Christ there are many references to the Temple of God. Why will there be no need for a Temple in the New Jerusalem? How is the presence of God different here? | ||||||
2 | Temple and No Temple? | Rev 21:22 | EdB | 62243 | ||
Mommapbs Is this a trick question? :-) The verse you quoted gave the answer. I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. When you have God in your midst you do not need a temple, and certainly not one made with man's hands. EdB |

3 | Temple and No Temple? | Rev 21:22 | Mommapbs | 62247 | ||
Greetings Ed, no it's not a trick question. As I read through the other verses that mentioned God's Temple, I wondered about the purpose of the Temple in Heaven. I also wondered about how the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb ARE the Temple. Perhaps I am beint too literal in my approach, but isn't a Temple a place of worship, a place of meeting with God? Does this suggest then that we will need no place of meeting in the New Jerusalem? What about worship in the New Jerusalem? Comments? Thanks, I really do appreciate your reply! Mommapbs PS: I'm really excited that this is my REAL HOME! |

4 | Temple and No Temple? | Rev 21:22 | EdB | 62273 | ||
Mommapbs This is getting philosophical now. May I suggest our relationship with God is changing. God in the garden was the Creator but also seemed to have a fatherly aspect. God after the fall was a God to worshipped and obeyed, but is high and lifted up. God in the New Heaven and New Earth is God the Father again. Your right we see in Isaiah 6 God the majestic in the Temple of God where smoke and thunder filled the room. Angels cried holy holy holy. (I like that part). In Revelation 21-22 we see God among the people. There is still worship of Him but instead of being in a temple God is among the people receiving the Glory, honor and love due Him. EdB |

Greeting EdB! More than Eden restored is what God has promised. What a day that will be when we will enjoy the intimate communion with our Lord - it is what He desires! May this also be the longing of our hearts (Psalm 63). Blessings, Mommapbs |
